Summary
The aim of this course is to introduce students to the fundamental principles of 3D computer graphics using the OpenGL graphics API (optionally Vulkan) and shader programming in GLSL. Students will gain basic knowledge of the functioning of graphics cards and the rendering pipeline, learn selected fundamental algorithms, and gain practical experience implementing key techniques.
